A dangerous incident occurred last Monday in the Liniers area of Buenos Aires. 24-year-old Facundo Rodríguez attempted to cross the railway tracks while looking at his mobile phone and nearly ended up under a train. The security cameras of the Trenes Argentinos railway line recorded the incident moment by moment. The footage shows Rodríguez stepping onto the tracks while focused on his phone, realizing the train at the last moment and trying to pull back, but the train hit him. As a result of the impact, the young man fell to the ground but did not suffer serious injuries. After the incident, train services were halted for 45 minutes. Rodríguez left the scene on his own after being checked by health officials. This dangerous situation sparked widespread reactions on social media. Many people highlighted the dangers of walking while using a mobile phone. While some users criticized Rodríguez, others stated that those around him should have warned him as well. This incident once again underscored the importance of being cautious in public transport areas and staying alert to the surroundings. Authorities called on pedestrians to be more careful to prevent similar accidents.
